NYPD is far from perfect, but it's a lot more professional and less corrupt than departments in other big US cities. It also lives under a media microscope (NYC is pretty much media central), so any abuses tend to be outed with extreme prejudice in a national forum. And rightly so -- sunlight disinfects.
